Nice Ute Rusty!

Just wondering how your fuel consumtion is?
Mine just seems to be drinking too much... it can be between 14-15L/100km...

I had a series 1 SS Ute for about 2 weeks that seemed awesome on fuel!
Using about 12L/100km and I wasnt driving it softly at all.

I was thinking that maybe Holden run them a bit rich until you have your 3000km service and then re-map?
Any help on this subject?

Mine is a manual, but I didnt think that it would make a massive difference to the fuel consumption?

Very nice mate, finally got it hey.
I love Phantom, makes me miss my old SV6

How do the rear parking sensors go? I didn't realise they were a factory option.

Ps - you posted your thread in the wrong topic area lol.

Got the sensors on my ute, they are handy, I'm starting to have more faith in them but it takes time to trust them when you are reversing blindly.

Nice one mate, looks good!

Thanks guys, I trust em If they fail I have my touch park sensor I mean tow bar lol. Fuel consumption is the same as u mate waiting tO see if it gOes down yer. I realized that I changed it lol

 

[Maccas90]

Can you get a reverse camera for the ute?

the dam hard lid not locking and shutting piece of crap lol

Try the key for the lid and turn the lock, then the central locking should lock it.
If its not shutting properly you can adjust the upside down "U" shaped bits of metal on inside of tray with the nuts to raise or lower it to suit the lid latch (sorry cant seem to find words to explain).
I've got mine so that when I close lid, I have to lightly push down and I can hear a click when the lid latch catches, just to keep a tight seal.
